Philadelphia dustup

A brief scan did not turn this up here yet, so here you go.

The facts of the case are silly enough, but the writing in this article is ludicrous. It is notable for the way it demeans Plotkin by focusing on his apparel, physique and his nervousness (which could be considered progress in that traditionally this type of treatment has usually been reserved for females). But then, LaBan does not come off too well either.

Do you think there is an opportunity for a new TV show - Law and Order: Food Beat?

"His hair suggests meticulous effort, with a few perfect strands spilling down his forehead like black water over a cliff’s edge."

"In the brief filed on Chops’ behalf, LaBan is a dining devil, prancing cloven-hooved through the city’s streets to drown well-meaning restaurant owners with the Inquirer’s many gallons of flaming ink."

This article pisses me off. Nevermind the ludicrousness of the suit, the writing is on-par with the witticisms on a Hooter's menu.

How do people such as whoever wrote this get jobs in the writing world?
